Day 11: Joshua

Tonight, for a change, I read the story of Joshua. This was the beginning of the fulfillment of claiming the land God promised to Abraham. A land flowing with milk and honey that God would help them to claim. This miraculous story was the first conquer. 
There was a felt ornament of a horn and sword, paper ornament, and a chocolate horn that they split and pretended to toot. We ended the lesson with a jazzy round of "Joshua Fought the battle of Jericho".

When the story was over, my youngest ran to grab a few foam blocks and small men, set them up, made a horn noise and kicked the wall over. Good application of the lesson!





If you are following along with the Bible in Stories -  pages 186-187, Rahab could also be told on this day, pages 182-183.
If using the Bible or another Bible reader - Joshua 6.
Song: "Joshua Fought the battle of Jericho"
